Happy Sunday crafty friends!! I cannot believe today is the last day of July!! This summer has gone by so fast-too fast!!! When you work in a school, the first day of August is not a date you look forward to. It goes all downhill from there!! Not really!!
Today I am popping in with some cards I created for some challenges. I actually had some inspiration this week and wanted to use some of the new supplies I have bought this month.
I used Pinkfresh Studio's Beautiful Blooms stamps, dies and stencils for this card.
The background die is from Birch Press Design. I actually had to cut it down because it die cut wonky when I ran it through my die cut machine. I should have used a new piece of tape!!!
My second card was inspired by the sketch at Sunday Stamps.
I used products from 49 and Market Spectrum Sherbet Tidal Wave collection.
The sentiment is from Pinkfresh Studio's Rainbow Sentiments.
I used Waffleflower Crafts A2 Layer Dies to die cut out all my panels of pattern paper. I used Pumice Stone Distress Ink along the edges and then distressed them.
I am also entering this card into The Paper Players Challenge-PP602. It is a Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge and I used the middle row-die cut, blue and pattern paper.
This card was a bit out of the box for me but I LOVE how it came out!!!
Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!
